"They were very talented and lovely girls and we enjoyed the music. All our guests were impressed so yes we would use them again and thank you. May have missed a trick in getting all the guests to stand and listen to a particular number so that there is full appreciation for their talent and more interaction. Thank you. Jeanette. "

"Thames Valley String Quartet performed at our wedding on Saturday 4th May 2019 in Shrewsbury and we couldn’t be happier! They played as our guests arrived, the ceremony and reception drinks. From the initial enquiry we were extremely happy with the personal service we received from Kathryn, responses were helpful and quick - even when we were delayed ourselves. We took a while to decide on our song choices, but Kathryn and the rest of the group were very accommodating and played a huge range of styles for us, from a suggestion from the grooms grandad to learning a song especially for the groom (Final Fantasy sound track) which he absolutely loved for before the ceremony. On to classical and modern pop for the rest. Even though the sun was shining the air was cold being an outdoor ceremony but they all played through it like troopers to enable us to have our dream ceremony. Once again, a huge thank you to all of you in Thames Valley String Quartet for making the journey to be a part of our wedding day, both the two of us and our guests LOVED having you there and listening to you play. We highly recommend booking with Thames Valley String Quartet for any event with their diverse repertoire, skills and great personal service. Thank you again! "

"Rachel played the cello on my debut album initially following existing arrangements forwarded to her only a few hours before and adding her own. This project required a professional who could pick things up quite quickly and make changes when and as required, improvising in effect. Rachel did this and more, understanding the essence of the music and beautifully blending her own touches into the style (folk fusion)."

"We would like to thank Soli Strings for providing such a great live musical accompaniment for our event. It was a really interesting twist to hear jazz on string instruments – very uplifting and upbeat!"

"Gareth John and Nouveau Quartet were a highlight of our wedding day. Having Gareth involved felt especially meaningful - he was my music teacher, and that personal history added something to the occasion that we hadn't quite anticipated. At our request, they arranged two songs specially for the quartet - one for the bride's entrance and one for the exit. Both were beautifully done, and it was a moment that clearly resonated with our guests too, judging by the number of people who mentioned it afterwards. Throughout the ceremony and reception, Nouveau Quartet were faultless. They covered a fantastic mix of classical, pop and film music with real skill and warmth, and kept the atmosphere exactly right from start to finish. If you're looking for live musicians for your wedding, we'd recommend them without hesitation."

"We first heard the Songbird String Quartet at a Wedding Fayre and it did not take us long to know that they were perfect for our big day. They gave us some short examples of different styles of music which had a real quality. In the build up to the wedding the quartet were always happy to take any requests for them to arrange, of course they need lead time for this. On the day the quartet arrived and, knowing our intent, set off with playing our programme of music. So taken with them, we booked them for a lot of the day and they were fantastic throughout our ceremony, during the photographs and during the wedding breakfast. Not only did the Songbird String Quartet bring a touch of class to our wedding, they were so supportive of the music we wanted and the occasion - they have a true sense of timing and mood. The quality of their music is stunning - you really can not go wrong booking them for your big day."

"Dear Anne, Just wanted to say thank you for the music at our Golden wedding/birthday party on board the Sabrina on 10th July. Your choice of music was very good with something for everybody. I’m sorry you had to play in such cramped conditions, but it was lovely to have you there - really lifted the spirits. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and thankfully the weather was kind to us and didn’t rain until it was time to go home. thanks once again, We did enjoy it, and courtesy of the recording made by my youngest grandson, can listen again to your lovely playing of Elgar's "salut d'amour' any time we like - the sound is good on the recording, though the picture leaves something to be desired. Still, he is only 10! Thanks once again,Pearl Sent from my iPad "
